"Monster" by Half Shy from the Adventure Time Distant Lands : Obsidian
Вставка

- I had the great pleasure of writing the song "Monster" for the Adventure Time Distant Lands episode, Obsidian. By far one of my favorite shows of all time. What a wonderful experience.
Here's my living-room edition. :)
A million thanks to Adam Muto, the Cartoon Network, and HBO Max.
P.S. Can I get some Ukulele lessons from Rebecca? ;)

For the Ukulele Chord nerds:
G-B-Em-Em (I know we'll never...)
G-Bm-B-Em (Don't beat yourself up Bonnie....)
G-B-Em-Em (I've always felt like a Monster...)
C-D-Em-Em (Used to that....)
G-B-Em-Em (And I know we'll never...)
You could use B7 instead of B too, whatever floats your boat.
P.S.S. For the ones asking about a tutorial, voila: • "Monster" - Adventure ... 😉
you are criminally underrated. like seriously, the person who wrote the song should get a shit ton more recognition.
Years ago when I did my special to shoot Adventure Time, you let me use your video. At that time very few people knew me and I am very grateful to you for helping me and I am proud to see what they gave you this great opportunity. You are great ⭐
HEROSWORD! Yes of course I remember, great to see you're doing well! Thank you so much!
:o hola herosword ksks
Booth of you
holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa HEROSWORD soy tu fan bro:3
Congrats! It's one of my fave Marceline songs now ✨
What's ur favourite? 🤔
@@clara6022 Probably I am just your problem
@@TransPirate ah yes a classic 😌
I'm a mediocre pianist and I have absolutely zero idea how to gauge how well someone sings. But even with my limited experience, I can say with confidence that your base is strong and you vibrato is otherworldly.
That's very sweet of you, thanks!
I legit don't know how you did it. Everything Stays was so representative of Marceline's character, and it still hits me just as hard as the first time I heard it, and yet you managed to compose a new song for Marceline that is just as representative of her character, and just as powerful. Amazing work.
That's incredibly kind of you to say, thank you! P.S. I'm digging your "Lullaby for the Time God" track right now :).
OMG YOU WROTE THIS SONG? YOU ROCK! WHAT A GREAT ADDITION FOR THE BUBBLINE FANDOM. Thank you for sharing your talent :>>
I know we'll never grow old together
Cause you'll never grow old to me
You're the pink in my cheeks
And I'm scared cause that means
I'm a little bit soft
Don't beat yourself up, Bonnie
It wasn't just the sun that I was hiding from
We were messed up kids who taught ourselves how to live
And I'm still scared that I'm not good enough
I've always felt like a monster
Long before I was bit
Only seen as a monster
Let's just say I'm used to it
And I grew tough cause love it only hurt me back
But loving you is a good problem to have
And I'm used to that but I could get used to this
And I'm used to that but I could get used to this
I know we'll never grow old together
Cause you'll never grow old to me
You're the pink in my cheeks
And I'm love that means
I'm a little bit soft
You're the pink in my cheeks
And I'm love, that means
I'm a little bit soft
This! Is! Amaziiiiiiiing!! This song and how it's about healing, learning to open yourself up.... with these two characters that have so much history and development over the show, ending on this very personal marceline song, and then the ep itself putting a story about the dragon in.... It's so beautiful. Everybody needs to learn about this.
Aww thanks! Marcy and PB sure are great, I loved watching their character development throughout the show. They did such a wonderful job on this episode.
Omg your voice is so soft and depp and wooo i love it
I love your smile at the end
😉
OMG IT's yoouuu, i love your songs so much, i love a little bit of madness and Monster is one of my fav songs eve, this is such a beaultiful song I honestly felt like screaming like the actual monster in the show when the bass came in haha, thanks so much for making this song
❤❤❤
I FINALLY FOUND YOU! I heard your song in the new episode of Fiona and Cake and instantly fell in love with the song. Great music, keep it up!
I wish obsidian or this song never got old
out of the thousands of songs on my spotify "monster" is my favourite song. 😭❤
That's quite the honor, thank you! 💖
@@HALFSHY not sure if "crying" is what you want people to express but that's what I feel like everytime I hear that song. Not like sad cry but more like awwwww cry. Lol if that make sense lol
This song is on every Playlist I make
@@HueyGnash honestly I cry sad crying, haha but I love when this song makes me cry what a good memories it brings back
I love it
DUDE. You do good music writings.
you wrote such powerful lyrics, the AT team did a wonderful decision choosing you ♥️
Thank you Anna, that's really sweet! ♥️
Probably one of the best tracks on the Obsidian, so glad to see you live performing this song, im almost crying tears rn :)
This is art, can you put the chords and the strumming pattern? :(
I plopped the chords up in the description for ya 😉
@@HALFSHY strumming pattern ?
@@theoriginalmiles632 Hmm, I like to mess around with different ones from time to time, but the most prominent one used in the recording (not sure how to type this out without some sort of visual...) was 1(up), 2(down), & (up), & (up), 4(down), & (up). Down, down up, up down up. Dang that's confusing typed out. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@HALFSHY you are so amazing thank you so much :)
ahhhh i’m so glad to hear you perform this !!!!!!!
You can a tutorial plis i love this song🤧
Sorry si no se estiende es que no hablo ingles unu
Figures, only you and Olivia had that pure simple emotion in the song when it is actually sung, not too much unnecessary flair like most covers. Love it!
i quickly fell in love with this song the first time i hear this in the episode 🥺🥺
I adored this song during the episode, and I'm in love with your voice in this version! The song is amazing, great job! 💙
Thank you so much Jacob!
Wonderful and moving. Thank you! This song was the perfect denouement for something I wanted to see in Adventure Time for years. Worth the wait.
❤ That's lovely to hear! Also gold star ⭐ for using "denouement" in a sentence. 🙂
AHHHH WAIT YOU WROTE IT AHHHHHHH
This is incredible, I just found you by new "Fionna and Cake" series. Loves from Brazil, you're amazing
YEAH I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!!!!!! ITS SO GOOD I ALWAYS CRY!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS SONG
yaaayy! new song. I love it ❤
Wowser! I love it...
Congrats that Cartoon Network post your video in their channel
only 6000 views? what the hecks! this is my new favorite song!!!
I've been listening to this on loop the past couple days! So glad AT brought me to your beautiful work
Thanks Kai! I'm so glad you like it! 😉
a chord sheet would be a bonus blessing to an absolute beginner like me, the first blessing is your song, its a beautiful song and you deserve that chance with cartoon network with a talent like yours
Hi there Dharyl, thank you for the lovely compliments! I'd check out this video to see if it helps. ua-cam.com/video/5YzlngM8l_E/v-deo.html Also I put the fingerpicking part up on my website if you need a little extra help. ;)
Beautiful song I really love it❤❤
Love your mood it's great!
Ha, thanks 😉 Love your Manège à trois cover!
Amazing work, fits Marceline really well and makes me feel all kinds of emotionnal.
U WROTE THE SONG??? AHHHH I LOVE IT SO MUCH
You sound amazing and I love the way you wrote the song
Love the song so much! It capture that beautiful feeling that Rebecca Sugar was so great eliciting, and has equally clever and impactful lyrics. I'm curious how you ended up working with the AT team, did someone working on the show just randomly stumble upon your fan songs and reach out to you?
Thanks Adam! Oh Rebecca Sugar is such a wonderful songwriter, thank you for the comparison, that's quite the compliment! It was a funny coincidence that someone from the show reached out to me just before I was putting out those fan songs. I'd tagged something #adventuretime and they happened to see it. Crazy how the world works sometimes.
Aww this was my first song I learnt on the guitar! You truly made a beautiful song :)
Fantastic job
omg thank you so much for creating this song 🥺 i’ve heard the olivia olson and king princess versions but i think yours is my favourite 💗
Why thank you, that's quite the compliment! It was such an honor to have them both sing it 🥰

Good stuff
If there’s one good thing about 2020 it’s all the amazing indie musicians I’ve had the time to discover!
I like many others discovered you through Obsidian, and based on how much I *adore* this song, I’m really excited to hear more from you!
Thanks Sadlad! Indeed, you gotta find the good things in 2020 where you can :) I really loved discovering Zuzu after hearing "Woke Up" for the first time, she really nailed that song.
I really like this video! It somewhat gives me nostalgia from my younger days, being with friends and such but now we seem to drift apart; I still have hope that our friendship is still there and would truly blossom. I would never get enough of them and being their friend makes me feel at home. The song is what I really latched onto I've been hurt as a kid but because of my loved ones I have become much more stronger. Your voice is so relaxing by the way 💞✨ It is so gentle and I love it too much!! 💓
I get you on that one. It's such a powerful tug at your emotions those friendships from childhood. Hard not to miss that. Thank you for sharing ♥️.
Still one of the best covers
I just realized u wrote it, u are amazing
I'm so happy I stumbled upon this video, it seriously completes me. It's more than well-written and far beyond dreamy. Thank you very much 💙

Oye disculpa sabes que tipo de ukelele es si soprano o concierto?
Your song is absolutely lovely. Who is your inspiration upon making this song? And is that Bonnie and Marcy on your wall?
Jess, thank you so much! That is indeed PB and Marcy on my wall, I got that print from Kat Leyh at Seattle ComicCon a few years back. About inspiration, whew, I filled quite a few notebooks with my ramblings - that might be a little too long for a UA-cam reply 😉. There's a little more about the song here if you're interested: gunterfan1992.tumblr.com/post/636576694243835904/half-shy-interview
@@HALFSHY thank you for this I've read it and you are so awesome! No wonder why the song is so warm and lovely as you are a bubbline fan and you pour so much love on it. Sending you love and best wishes on your career hoping to hear more bubbline songs from you.
hi what chords did you use? thank you!!!
Nothing too fancy ;)
G-B-Em-Em (I know we'll never...)
G-Bm-B-Em (Don't beat yourself up Bonnie....)
G-B-Em-Em (I've always felt like a Monster...)
C-D-Em-Em (Used to that....)
G-B-Em-Em (And I know we'll never...)
@@HALFSHY hey, i just want to say thank you. This is my favorite song from Marceline :33 Also, what features do you use in each part? I want to dedicate it to the girl that I like, even though I'm very shy and it would help me a lot pwp 💖💖💖
@@cerezodulce That sounds awfully sweet. Thank you! I'm not 100% sure on what you mean by what features do you use in each part, but if you haven't seen this video I might give it a gander and see if it clears up how to play it a little more: ua-cam.com/video/5YzlngM8l_E/v-deo.html
@@HALFSHY thank you so much! QwQ ❤❤❤ i'm sure that she is going to love the song nwn 💗
